Hi Johnny,

Thanks for pointing out. I thought I can raise any Tomcat issues in this
forum.

Good news is that I managed to get rid of this problem by running Xvfb
server and using the DISPLAY variable to point to this display.
Also removed the -Djava.awt.headless=true option. Now the error is gone.

Thanks anyways for the quick response.

Thanks & Regards,
 
Gopi

Hi Everyone,

I am having this typical issue which many have faced which is below:

Graphics ENV testing has failed. The Server is going to exit. Please
check 
your configuration and retry.
[2008-08-26 13:01:01.461] LogError

According to suggestions from different threads, I have tried setting 
CATALINA_OPTS="$CATALINA_OPTS "-Djava.awt.headless=true

since the server is running in Solaris env. (5.8) and Tomcat 5.5.9

The production server is in a controlled environment, managed by System 
Admins, with limited acces to me. This was working fine one month back,
but 
suddenly this issue started to crop up.
We dont have much expertise in Tomcat here, so I could not much help
from 
colleagues.
I hope to get some pointers here.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Regards,
Gopi

----------------

Gopi I dont know... dont use Sun stuff which I imagine this server is...
But the linux guru here says he thinks its because the X11 libraries are

missing or corrupted.
Tomcat may be triggering it because a servlet needs a graphics lib...
like 
for example captcha needs the graphics head.
Cant make the server headless if the apps need that stuff...
... we guess ;)
